chendersby Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Vegas in 09? Not likely. At this time there is no range in Vegas big enough or willing to do it. Hopefully this will change in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Hi, I at set up right now and there is room for at least 15 more shooters. Walkups are welcome but the MD asks that you register on Thursday night at the match motel instead of at the range on Friday morning. Squad selection would be limited. The match motel is the Rodeway and the number is 318-747-2400. Thanks Tom Drazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpowe Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I just talked to Wayne and he said they have increased the time for the first string on stage 2 to 15 seconds. I could make 12 aimed shots in 15 seconds! (if it weren't for the dang reload ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STInky Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Car is loaded...., gas tank is full (thanks VISA!), and the coffee is poured.......We'll be hitting the road in a few minutes !!!! See some of you this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reneet Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Troy called me yesterday to ask if we could get some Remington 12 ga. 2 3/4 low recoil slugs in here for him to shoot the match with. We've got 50 boxes coming and 20 are spoken for. If there's anything anyone else needs, if you'll let us know, we'll try to get it here by tomorrow.

reneet Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Looks like you can secure a ticket from Sacramento to Shreveport for around $ 500. I would hate to hear how much it would cost to get all your gear on the plane with you though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warpspeed Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I could not find the interim results on the USPSA website. Have I been spending too much time with the rubber rats ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outerlimits Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 no results on the uspsa page-they never did take 3gun seriously, despite the prez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00bullitt Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Looks like Taran is gonna wrap up Tactical. Phil Strader was right on his heels until standards. Kelly Neal is smoking in Limited. I think hes got this one. Open is hit or miss for everyone. Chris Tilley is smoking fast but tacking on several penalties. Tony Holmes is shooting strong. Tony flat out nailed the standards. 18 hits out of 24. Gun and equipment problems seem to be plaguing the open leaders. For such a simple straight forward match.....I've seen lots of mistakes. Why are there no preliminaries on USPSA? That blows. All squads shoot one stage tomorrow before the awards at 11am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmshtr Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 One more stage and we're done! If I've learned anything about this match, it's that the abandonment boxes here BLOW! Our squad alone has had two damaged sights (one sheared off completely) and two damaged optics on their shotguns. I'm thinking about donating some barrels and carpet for the next Multi-gun Nats! The stages themselves aren't bad at all. They're deceivingly simple, but there have only been a few shooters that have been penalty free. The Standards Stage would've been cooler as a small 3 position field course, but all in all it's been a pretty cool match. A lot of the stage results were posted today. I'm not sure, but I think matches look like this: Open: Mike V. just ahead of Chris Tilley with Jerry M and Don Bednorz trailing behind Chris (but I'm not sure by how much) Tactical: GUESS! Taran B. is cruising to yet another victory with the rest of us fighting for scraps. Horner couldn't make it due to Army business. Limited: Kelly Neal and Bruce Piatt are battling it out, but they're on separate squads, so it's hard to know how that will hash out. Robbie Johnson and Ted Puente are in the mix as well. There are a lot of great shooters spread out among different squads, so who knows what' going to happen. I'm surprised that the interim results aren't posted online somewhere. Sorry if my predictions don't turn out right. We'll see where the chips fall...right next to the gun out of the tiny box! Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Ellis Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I received an e-mail that there were 13 cancellations for the 3-Gun Nationals. I was one of those cancellations. Gustave threw a red oak on/in my house and I've got higher priorities than runnin' n' gunnin'. Wishing I was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I predict that the scores will be final at least three hours late The closest guess to how late the scores will actually go final (without going over) wins a hat Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
